Charlotte Edey is a British artist (b.1992, Manchester) based in London. Edey’s work unravels issues of selfhood and the politics of embodiment through a process of world-building by way of weaving, embroidery, beadwork and drawing. The language of drawing is translated through her textile practice. Mark-making and gesture are explored through extensive hand-embroidery and beading on tapestry; relating thread, line and surface. Edey employs found objects and artist frames as narrative devices to blur the boundary between the real and the represented, forming portals to slippery otherworlds that reframe notions on interiority and the domestic.
Recent solo and duo shows include Thin Places, at Frieze London for Ginny on Frederick (2024), All Words Are Written In Water at Anat Ebgi, Los Angeles, CA (2024), The Inexpressible Is Contained at Sea View, Los Angeles, CA (2024). Recent group notable group exhibitions include As Above, So Below at FLAG Art Foundation, New York, NY (2025), An Uncommon Thread at Hauser & Wirth, Somerset, UK, and Behind the Bedroom Door at James Cohan, New York, NY (2025).
